26/06/2025 | 12:02:44 Thank you President, and to those who have spoken. The debate has been very interesting. I take advantage of this rebuttal to thank the NGOs, associations, and civil society that are mobilising and collaborating to manage migration flows. There is an African fable about a big forest fire and the animals fleeing. Only the hummingbirds stay and run back and forth to fetch water with their beaks and carry the water, fill their beaks, and spill it on the fire. And a rhinoceros says to the... 26/06/2025 | 11:25:36 Thank you Mr President. Dear colleagues, We are all aware of the challenge posed by the management of migratory flows and how complex it is to address this issue while respecting international Conventions, insulating it from attempts to instrumentalise it in the public debate for political confrontation. Precisely from this, I wanted to address a specific and very concrete aspect of the migratory sphere: analysing and understanding the role and needs of all the public and private actors, who... 26/06/2025 | 10:55:55 In October 2013, there were 368 migrant deaths. That was how the Mare Nostrum humanitarian mission found impetus, 368 dead, drowned just a stone's throw from Lampedusa.

To avoid an election debacle, the former Conservative Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Mr Rishi SUNAK, had latched onto the migration issue and challenged the European Court of Rights, which had prevented him from implementing his deportation plan. We all know how that turned out. Today that spirit is back, in the letter published by the nine countries, evidently aimed at public opinion, to attack the Court, accusing it, in some way, of impeding the exercise of... 08/04/2025 | 19:09:38 Thank you, Chairman. Thank you very much to my colleague Mr Pierre-Alain FRIDEZ for this nice report and the recommendations. If borders, if borders are worth more than people, it clearly follows that there is the possibility of collective rejection, and it follows that crossing those borders, those forbidden borders, constitutes for those who do it, regardless of the reasons why they do it, which are mostly dramatic, regardless of the age with which these young people cross eventually those...
